In His Will
By Pearlie Duncan Walker ©


As we travel this old earth over,
let us run the race with zest.
Let us be in His will ever,
let us always pass the coming test.
Jesus, help us all the long and tiring way,
to be in your will ...
And some day, as we grow more mature,
we will be there still.
At each early dawning,
with fresh dew drops upon the ground ...
We see the amazing wonders you have given,
as we look all ‘round.
The beach with the sand upon it
and oceans which are deep and clear.
Heads bowed low,
knowing in our hearts that you are always near.

Near enough to catch a teardrop
as it falls from a broken heart,
And close in our minds,
knowing from Thee we'll never part.
Looking at the trees in Autumn,
or the snow-caps upon the mountain there ...
We're bound of Thy love to be in Thy will
and talk to Thee in Prayer.

Or, look at the little children,
as they wish upon a star at night ...
It makes our hearts as light as a feather
and love Thee with all our might.
So let us run the race and look out upon the horizon,
at all the sights to see ...
That in that great day up yonder,
we will truly with our Savior be.

He has compassion for us,
(His children) we see it in the gift He gave,
As He went into Hades and took the keys,
as he also arose from the grave.
So we can be there with Him in that great city,
beyond the deep blue sky ...
So let us Glory in that great tomorrow,
when we're in His will up there on high.
